They all kind of look like dickheads ngl. Like that annoying kid who always breaks boundaries.

(ie. they all look very full of themselves — I guess that’s how you become a leader…)

Idk, it's hard to be mad at kid Mussolini. He looks like he's just real upset to be there. All the other kids look like bullies or spoiled/sheltered nepo babies, though. Turn that frown upside down down, kid.

It would take him years, but the frown would eventually be turned upside down, under a bridge, if memory serves correctly.
